Head liner color

Post by Philo »

Guys.., is the US M5 headliner color Schwarz or Anthrazit ? And if it is Schwarz how far off is Anthrazit color wise ? Schwarz is NLA.

Thanks.

M5 was Schwarz,
My 528i has Anthrazit = Darker Grey This color looks pretty good but like most will turn color at the C pillers over time.

The problom is you can still get a Anthrazit headliner for a sunroof car, but not the sunroof piece.

You can still get the Schwarz sunroof piece, but not the whole headliner for a sunroof car!!

I have found some pretty close material and colors at my upholstery dudes shop, but not a exact match.

Your Auto Trim has headliner kits in black. I have not compared the material to see if it resembles the BMW headliner.

I did drop a note toCreative Options to see if they have material used in the e30s they specialize in. That should be the same, right?

I'll have to call Creative Options again. I didn't hear back from them. GAHH has some black options available.

Do you by any chance have the part number, I am not sure if I have the correct part number...


EDIT: I do have the moonroof, the piece I am looking for is for the sliding cover piece... In Schwarz...
